Sorry, should have made it clearer that in step 2, when you create the text
field on the stage, choose the name you gave your font from the font menu
(that is probably obvious but I thought I'd just clarigfy to avoid confusion
:).

I'd agree with Kenneth. If possible, use something like Verdana which
definitely includes all the characters you need - not all fonts do.

But, if you really do need to embed the fonts, then you can use a
combination of your first two suggestions to acheive what you want.

1) create a font symbol, giving it whatever name you want to use to refer
to your font.
2) create a text field on the stage and use that to force Flash to embed
whichever characters you want. For different font weights, use more font
symbols and text fields.

As Kenneth warns, it can very quickly pump up your compiled swf size
though.
